USC finishes at #4
The USC Trojans finished the 2006 season, a rebuilding year, ranked No. 4 in both the AP and Coaches Polls.
Why not No. 2?
Is it because the Rose Bowl was more of a distant memory (all of a week ago) than LSU beating the snot out of ND (as expected) or Florida beating the snot out of Ohio State (not expected)? Either way, it doesn't really matter. When you are not No. 1, a Top 5 finish is all that anybody remembers, or keeps track of.
2007 Rose Bowl Champions sounds pretty damn good to me.

yeah, i remember my sophomore-senior years being memories of a not quite top-5 (in the Pac10) team... so these are still good times!
The highlights of my collegiate years were winning the Rose Bowl and ending the Notre Dame streak. I am certainly not taking the Pete Carroll years for granted.
